Broken Out In Hives, Rash And Have Red And Itchy Bumps Due To Poison Ivy, Took Tysabri Treatment, On Provigil. What Is Wrong ?

Recently I have broken out in hives, rash and have bumps that are red and itch. Went to urgent care and they told me it was poison ivy but thought it was clearing up and noticed I have more red hive rashes coming out all the sudden when it seemed like it was clearing up. I did have a tysabri treatment today and am taking Provigil.

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
Hives are a form of allergy.
Probably you are allergic to any thing.
It may be a cloth, fruits etc.

The treatment given to you is correct.
But most important is to find out the cause of your condition.
The cause must be eliminated
Please meet a dermatologist if the lesions increase

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
